Looks good. I am impressed that you have made up the RIP as I never believed it possible with all the sensors on the pipe leading into the ETM. Have you noticed any difference in the spool up time?

I cut the pipe just after the caped off hole just before the other long sensor.
It does seem to spool alittle quicker and also seems stronger when pulling.

Fitted a filter today and air trap,was surprised the way the standard plastic part that goes into the top of the intercooler seems covered up on the other side and i couldnt work out how the air from the grill would pass through.
Was different on the 850,well i cut a bit out anyway so the air can get through there pritty well now.

Car defo seems to pull better with the rip and filter now just need to get the exhaust on and take her to the rollers before and after a map.

That would be the snow scoop. Not so necessary in Notts.

Ok just alittle update.

Managed to get a set of silver comets on her and must say shes looking better and stand's out alot more.



Ok after this i decided to spray the grill up and now looks better,just need to change the badge as mine is alittle worn.



Ok fitted a boost gauge and a polly top mount.





Ok so after this i got the obx system fitted,all went pritty well but the tail pipe came out abit too long from the back bumper so had to get this chopped and rewelded.
Doesnt sound too bad,maybe abit raspy but doesnt drone at all at speeds and sounds pritty nice when you boot it.



Ok so after this and the gauge went in i noticed it was boost alot more than standard so must have been mapped some where as 1st gear only boosts to 3/4psi and all the rest go to 16 psi.
Booked it into the rollers but before i went i decided to time a 60 to 100 mph time as i had my old vids from the 850 to compare it to.

Well to my surprise it was slightly quicker than the 850 so though it must be putting out so good power.

Ok got it dynoed and only made 256bhp and 300 lbft it made the 300lbft at 16psi but made the 256bhp at around 14psi as the boost dropped off.



So was alittle dissapointed but still pulls better on the road than the dyno would suggest.

So will see what she pulls at york then probably fit a k24,vxr injectors and try and get a map that maxes out the turbo.

Abit raspy on tick over and when you rev her but not to bad when you floor it.

Was a nice day so took the time to clean the car properly and took some better pictures.

Looks the bees' knees. Still love the colour! Shame I put mine over the hedge. What exhaust have you used?

Its the obx one,full system.
Its not to bad and does make a difference,cant complain really as it didnt cost much in the end.
